    In September 2004, during the live recording at Fenway Park, Jimmy Buffett was enjoying significant popularity and had a loyal fan base, often referred to as "Parrotheads." This era followed the release of his album "License to Chill," which came out in 2004 and debuted at number 1 on the Billboard 200, marking a peak in his commercial success. In the live performance, Buffett famously blends his iconic hit "Why Don’t We Get Drunk and Screw" with Neil Diamond's classic "Sweet Caroline," a testament to his playful style and ability to engage the audience interactively. This concert exemplifies Buffett's unique ability to create a fun, laid-back atmosphere, characteristic of his "island escapism" theme. Moreover, the choice of Fenway Park, known for its historic significance, adds a special charm to the recording, merging his beach-inspired music with a beloved sports venue.
